The last lap of an AMA/CCS GTU Endurance contest at Road America. The top two teams shown here with K&N Yamaha’s Sam McDonald (129) leading going into turn five with Team Toomer Kawasaki’s Michael Barnes (57) diving on the inside to attempt a pass. It worked. Barnes’ aggressive move forced McDonald to stand up his bike going into the tight left hander and Barnes moved ahead and held on to help Team Toomer win the race.
